I downloaded the whole RedHat 6.1 distribution
on my hard drive.  I downloaded boot-RHEA-1999:044.img
as well as updates-RHEA-1999:045.img and wrote them
to floppy.  When I boot up I only am able to
run with the text installer (no GUI no matter what)
I've tried 'linux updates', 'linux updates text',
'text updates test', and many more combinations
at the boot: prompt.  The installer never prompts
for an update disk.  It asks me for the language,
keyboard, etc.  I choose Hard Drive install and
it only lists /dev/hda2 (c?)  I have a few other partitions
and the base/RPMS are on another partition.  My partitions
are (C - Fat16X, D - FAT32, E - FAT16B, F - FAT32, G -
FAT32.  I then have 100meg for a linux swap and a
1gb ext2 partition. (13 gig drive).  I have the drive
in "normal" mode in the bios (as opposed to LBA and LARGE)
I was hoping that the update disk would work for me
but I was never ever prompted to put the update disk in.

I have been trying to install this for days and its
been very frustrating.

Thanks.
